4. Organizational Use of Knowledge
Knowledge caters to the critical issues of
organizational adaptation, survival, and
competence in the face of increasingly
discontinuous environmental change...
-Dr. Yogesh Malhotra of the BRINT Institute
5. Why Does This Matter?
Knowledge provides the power for applying
these attributes critically or practically to
make good decisions. It creates a balance
between execution and uncertainty that
drives up the probability of results.
6. “Productivity for the knowledge
worker means the ability to get the
right things done. It means
effectiveness. Knowledge work is
defined by its results.”
--Peter F. Drucker
7. Individual Use of Knowledge
Knowledge is used for solving problems,
answering questions, making decisions,
posing tasks to be accomplished and
accomplishing the tasks, and so on.
When a human does this, we talk about
the level of skill and intelligence that the
person has.
